Don’t play with trains
I’m sure there’s a lesson here involving not playing with (real) trains: Seven people killed by a train while pulling it for a “reality” TV show.
And this: Miss Deaf Texas killed by a train. Not sure why she was on the railway tracks, but being deaf, she didn’t hear it approaching, tooting at her.
Before the Commonwealth Games opener, staff at the MCG had a little message for a snooping Channel 7 helicopter — they arranged themselves on the arena to say “F— off!” Channel 7 showed the footage, with the F-word blurred.
It’s not nice to find that being nasty works, but Indian call centre workers are fed up with copping abuse. They want to ban known troublemakers. Can I sign up to that without shouting abuse at them?
The Peacock family realise maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to call their son Drew, but they’ll stick with it. (Thanks Marie)
